graphisspantree - Determine if tree is spanning tree

Syntax

TF = graphisspantree(G)

Arguments

G N-by-N sparse matrix whose lower triangle represents an undirected graph. Nonzero entries in matrix G indicate the presence of an edge.

Description

Tip For introductory information on graph theory functions, see Graph Theory Functions in the Bioinformatics Toolbox User's Guide.

TF = graphisspantree(G) returns logical 1 (true) if G is a spanning tree, and logical 0 (false) otherwise. A spanning tree must touch all the nodes and must be acyclic. G is an N-by-N sparse matrix whose lower triangle represents an undirected graph. Nonzero entries in matrix G indicate the presence of an edge.

Examples

Create a phytree object from a phylogenetic tree file.

tr = phytreeread('pf00002.tree')
 Phylogenetic tree object with 33 leaves (32 branches)

Create a connection matrix from the phytree object.
```
[CM,labels,dist] = getmatrix(tr);
```
Determine if the connection matrix is a spanning tree.
```
graphisspantree(CM)

ans =

     1
```
Add an edge between the root and the first leaf in the connection matrix.
```
CM(end,1) = 1;
```
Determine if the modified connection matrix is a spanning tree.
```
graphisspantree(CM)

ans =

     0
```
